"How dare you sit down among us? Have you no respect for age? Who in the world do you think you are?" Associate Murray was the first person to talk, his big fat belly dancing at his words. He was still annoyed how the Chairman had given Adrian the go ahead to approach Lyana and he would take his chance to get back at Adrian. "Answer my question, boy! Even your father has no place among us, whoever he may be!" Murray continued. If only he knew Adrian's true identity.Adrian feigned ignorance. "Oww... I do know nothing about that." He said. "Forgive me, distinguished sirs, but I am unfamiliar with the way of the elites. It is my hope that you will all teach me."Murray was not having it. "You want to be taught so badly? Fine! First lesson, get the hell out of here!""I am sorry, but I can't do that." The associates stared at one another, the disrespect was becoming increasingly unacceptable."I am going to be Chairman Rodriguez's son in law in a matter of time, it is only right that I

Adrian watched Love Morgan vanish from the hall in terror. He smirked, at least she was wise enough to realize he was no joke. But the others, those old men, they would not see it coming. By the time they saw his true colours, it would be too late.Someone came out of the washroom, Adrian saw it was Lyana. He had been waiting for her all along. She was looking for him, he could see. He made the signs to catch her attention. Then his phone rang."Hello.""Hey Adrian, where the stinking hell are you?""What...?""Answer me, boy. I am running thin on time here!""Wait... Is this Uncle George?" Adrian could finally process the voice."Yes you jerk and I am in trouble right now." It was not unlike George to always be in one sort of trouble or the other. "And I am with your sister."Now it got different. There was no way Helena would be with him right now. Especially at this time in the midnight. Miranda had always been particular about that. Until they reached the age of consent, none of h

Luther Astana was storming downstairs in anger when he came upon an old friend, Love Morgan. Love Morgan was going upstairs in shock of Adrian when she stumbled upon Luther. They met along the curved stairs, somewhere in the centre of the edifice without prior knowledge. And when they met, Love Morgan was too unnerved to pay him attention."Hey Love, it's been a long time." He said.She ignored him and tried to walk away. But Luther was not type who allowed himself to be walked past. He grabbed her by the arm, pulling her back."I am talking to you, my love. Or have you grown to completely hate me?""Leave me alone, Luther. Go and meet your sweetheart now that she is awake." She looked away with the glare of anger.Luther laughed, sensing the jealousy. He pulled her closer and pushed her back to the stair rim, letting his fingers rip across her skirt. "You know I do not give a fuck about Lyana Rodriguez. I am only doing this because our parents want us together."Love Morgan could not

Adrian drove fast into the night, angry from the depths of his spirit. A fleet of cars ahead of him was the evil inner circle. He knew where they were heading."Hey System! Where is my uncle and my sister?"A map appeared before his eyes. The location was highlighted, blinking in red light. But that was not the direction the inner circle was heading."What about my mother?"The system searched the entire city timeline again. "I am sorry, Adrian. Miranda seems to have been abducted approximately three hours ago. She is being held in the thickness of an abandoned woodland." The location was represented with a blue light on the screen. That was the direction the inner circle was heading. Adrian was sandwiched between two choices - To save his mother first or to go after his sister and his uncle."Reminder!" The system continued. "Your uncle's truck is being chased by James Halton and his men. If not found in the next ten minutes, your sister and your uncle are likely to be unalived."Adr

While the men in black suits who worked for the inner circle jumped into their vehicles and chased after the gold car, James Halton stood behind, in shock of this turn of events.He turned to Adrian Blood who had ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Adrian could feel James Halton's doubts about him grow larger, his piercing gaze struck deeper but Adrian maintained his calm."I have a question for you, Mr Blood." James Halton walked slowly, "Why did you reject the boss's offer? With his money, you can start a new life away from here. You won't need to do this truck work ever again. You could finally grow out of poverty. Why didn't you just accept his reward?"Adrian shook his head. "Then Lyana would think I am a cheap fellow who only cares about money like every other man she has ever met." He made up another excuse, willing to keep up this game until the system informed him of his uncle's safety. "I want her to know I am different."James Halton broke into laughter. In his e

Adrian rushed back home as soon as he could. He parked the truck by the roadside. It was 3am in the morning, yet he could still see the light from the mansion. His neighbours were still awake for some reason.As he dropped down form the wrecked piece of metal, the people upstairs stared in horror."Is that not Adrian?""It looks like him...""What happened to his car? He drove out of here in a Lamborghini and now he comes back in a twentieth century farm truck?""Maybe it was not his afterall. Maybe he only borrowed it...""I knew it. There was no way he could afford such an expensive car. He can't even feed himself. He is such a loser.""But he is still wearing that beautiful suit. How can he wear such nice outfit inside that terrible machine.""Well wait for it. I'm sure the cloth doesn't belong the him.""He must really think we are stupid. Living a fake life to feel important".Adrian could hear their voices. Another thing about his neighbours was that even when they wanted to gos

"Adrian Blood, you have some explaining to do." Uncle George was standing by the door, red faced and annoyed."Uncle!" Helena ran up to him, embracing him tight. But George did not keep his eyes off Adrian. He did not even smile."What have you been up to in this city?" He fumed. "Your mother only wanted you to study here and become successful. She didn't tell you to come here and fall into trouble. What trouble have you caused now? Why are those rich bastards after you?""It's nothing, uncle. I will take care of it.""Take care of it?" George scoffed, getting real impatient. "And where did you get that car? How did you fly me from my truck into that car? What evil sorcery are you involved in?"Adrian knew George was raging for answers. So was he. He knew there were several secrets kept from him by his mother and his uncle. He wanted all the answers to them, but here was not the place. Now was not the time. Mrs Huddersfield and her stupid son might be out there somewhere, their eyes a

Once it was morning, Adrian set out for the day. George had fallen asleep on the terrible couch, and Helena was not up yet. She had gone through so much the other night, Adrian hoped she would get more rest. As for himself, he had business to conclude.Adrian put away the suit he wore last night. It was no longer in good shape after everything he had gone through the night before. He could have gone to the elite store for new outfits, but this was not time for shopping. His mother was still in the kidnapper's custody and he had to get her out. So he picked one of his random wears and set out with it."Oh shit!" He cursed when he saw the state of his precious car. The Lamborghini had gone through some hard times in the hands of James Halton's men. Marks of bullets decorated its exterior, Adrian could not drive it out.The system chimed. "You have to leave the car here, Adrian. It will wheel itself to the mechanic workshop and the damages will be repaired. And don't worry, the price is

As the chairman tilted his head to confirm that there was nobody there with them, he was ready to spill the secret. Adrian Blood leaned to those shadows, and he was not sighted even for a moment. Yet the chairman decided to speak in whispers."Hey, system. I need to use my vital points. Enhanced hearing!" Adrian Blood chose at once, and the system quickly obeyed. The whispers became loud in his ears, and he heard every single word clearly."Your mother was not the only one who cheated." Federico told his son the truth. He needed not to explain in higher terms, no did he needed to narrate the entire history before the understanding could reach Ricardo's mind.Many years ago, young Federico Rodriguez had had to marry Evelyn for the annexation of her family's wealth. At that time, the Rodriguez family had only less than a tenth of their current wealth. With Evelyn's family company Holdings, the Rodriguez company would skyrocket into the skies. The marriage was quick and blessed by both f

Following the faint memories in his head, Adrian Blood found the paths that led downstairs. The way was unfamiliar, and the system helped him very little. Then he was about to give up when he heard their voices, father and son. After that came their footsteps, edging towards his direction from the right side.Adrian Blood quickly lodged himself away from their path. He leaned against the wall as Federico Rodriguez and Ricardo passed slowly, almost in silence now. That was until Ricardo broke the silence again. "So you are not angry at me?" He asked his father, who was in front. The chairman walked slowly and calmly, even though by the gait of his advance, one could tell how much of a hurry he actually was. He wanted to meet this Hans Zimmer as soon as possible. He had a lot of questions that he needed to ask him. He did not expect that Ricardo would be the one to burden him with questions along the way. Yet he still found the need to give him an answer."No, Ricardo. You are not the

When Ricardo Rodriguez and Federico Rodriguez were ironing out that issue, Adrian Blood was busy kissing their sister and daughter in all the right places, yet he was privy to everything they discussed. Every word they said, every statement they made."CEO BLOOD, THE RECORDING WILL NOT CONTINUE ONCE THE CHAIRMAN LEAVES THE ROOM WITH HIS SON..." The system informed Adrian as soon as Federico and Ricardo walked towards the door and were ready to leave the room.Adrian did not feel a loss at that point. He had been able to get a little from their little conversation. Now he knew that Ricardo Rodriguez was the one who captured Hans Zimmer after all. He also knew where the poor man was being held now, he knew where to look for him.If Hans Zimmer was abducted by Ricardo Rodriguez, did that mean that Amanda Wallers was also in that basement? Adrian needed to find out. He needed to follow the chairman and his son secretly, he needed to see the basement for himself. But he was stuck with Lya

"You are wrong, father. I did not take Hans Zimmer just to gain your honour." Ricardo said, cutting the chairman off his inferences and conclusions. "I did not kidnap him to gain your recognition."The chairman stared back into his son's eyes. "Then why?" He asked with his low voice, hard and thick.Ricardo attempted to say something, but then he held his tongue and remained silent. He could not say the truth. "I can't." He muttered.Where was he going to start from. How he grew so jealous of his sister that he decided to murder her? How he realized that he was no match for Lyana's genius so he attempted to kill her not once, not twice and not even thrice? He just could not do it.Meanwhile, Federico's suspicions only grew deeper with his reluctance. Maybe Adrian Blood was right after all. Ricardo had devilish plans towards his own father. Why else would he keep it a secret? Why else would he be unable to tell him what was on his mind? Why else would the question be so difficult to an

Chairman Rodriguez returned to his seat with the walking gait of a general in the military. He took his seat calmly and watched as Ricardo entered slowly and closed the door."What is this about, Father?"The chairman, instead of saying an answer to him, pointed to the empty seat in front of him. Ricardo sighed, still full of fury as he approached the chair and dropped on it. Federico Rodriguez leaned forward, placing his hands on the table between them."There are some questions I have to ask you, son." He started slowly but surely.Ricardo quickly spoke back. "There are some questions I have for you too, father. And I would like to go first."The chairman did not have the time to respond as his son continued."Is it true that you let mother die because you were busy having sex with that woman?""That woman is your stepmother." Federico Rodriguez corrected him at once. He was well sad at the fact that his children were now aware of what he thought was his secret, but he would not acc

Ann, the new maid, was returning from the washroom. She had just escaped the close call with the old woman, Julia, who found her out as the one who had tried to poison the chairman. Ann had spent several months preparing for that murder. She had learnt about many ways to kill an aristocrat who had wealth and plenty. The only possible way she could settle with was poisoning.Yet no poison would kill a rich man with so much easy. They had enormous funds for urgent medical care, and they had all the facilities to revive themselves. Thus, she had to find that poison that kills in the fastest way possible. The water-blood poison was the best thing she could find. She spent several days leaning about this deadly thing. How to get it, a very rare thing to find. How to handle it, a very volatile thing to hold. How to use it, a very dangerous thing in the wrong hands. She had learnt all this, and she had prepared herself all because of one man, all because of Federico Rodriguez. The man who d

Adrian Blood followed Lyana Rodriguez as she stormed on forward. He grabbed her arm before she could go any further."I have always thought that when my mother died, father was trying all his best to get back to us..." He could not see her face as she stood with her back in his sight, but he could hear the cry in her voice. She sobbed silently, betrayed and destroyed. "I thought that he was racing really quickly. He was panting really hard, hoping to get home on time. Hoping to be there to save his wife..." Of course, by the secret revealed tonight, he was panting really hard. Just not in the way that she would have hoped."I thought that when he arrived and he met her cold body, his entire world was crushing in front of his eyes. I thought he was so pained and so heartbroken that I could see it in his eyes."Adrian Blood did not know how, but the scenery played in front of his eyes. As he continued to hold Lyana Rodriguez, it was as if her memories were shunted into his, and he coul

"When your bitch mother was dying on that sick bed, Fede was right beneath me. He kept stroking as your mother kept calling. The sex was just too sweet, we did not need any interuption. And when he finally attempted to respond to the call, I reached for the phone first and threw it in the bin. Then I fucked your father like it was his last day on this earth!"Lyana listened quietly, in her heart was a burning flame. She was about to lose it. She was about to go crazy."Your father had already grown tired of your sickly mother. He never wanted to marry her. He only decided to settle for less because of the benefits of business. Every time he abandoned you and your mother, guess who he comes to for refuge. Me! He comes crawling back to me!""You..." There were tears in her eyes, but she would not allow them to peep. Her voice crackled, but she would not allow it to break. She would not allow Melissa to see this weak part of her. She would not allow that monster to know how much pained s

Jon laughed. "Did you really think you could get my formular? It took me years to come up with it, and you wanna do what? Pull it off in a month?""Ricardo says there is no time. He is threatening my family if I don't complete this on time. Now that you are here, you can as well help me." Richard Lewis said. Maybe this was not so bad after all. Maybe Jon Lewis's presence was a good thing. He was going to help me complete his mission, just like old times."No, no, little brother. You are always forgetting. This is not ten years ago. This is a different time. I am not here to help you get out of your mess. I am here for my own ambition."Many years ago, Jon Lewis was a genius who worked for everybody else except himself. His brother had introduced him to Federico Rodriguez, the man whom their father worked for. But Jon was not interested in the family career. He was interested in something else. Something more."What happened to you, Jon?" Lewis asked. "Where have you been all these yea
